The VP is president of the Senate and can put it into recess.
No. The Senate has to vote to go into recess. Except in the case of a House resolution requesting a joint recess, where the President has authority to impose a recess as he sees fit, the VP can not unilaterally put the Senate into recess. All he can do is call a vote and ask the body if they wish to recess.
